본 논문에서는 일반적으로 잡음이 있는 MR 영상의 배경 영역을 영역분활 알고리듬으로 제거하고 이영역분할의 정보를 손실 부호화에 이용함으로써 데이터의 압축 효율을 높이는 방법을 제안한다. 영역분할 알고리듬은 여역의특성 추출을 위해 전해상도 웨이블렛 변화(full-resolution wavelet transform)을 이용하며, 얻은 특성등의 분류를 위해 Kohonen self-organizing map을 사용한다. 웨이블렛 변환을 이용한 부호기에서는 영역분활 결과 진단에 의미없는 부분으로 판단된 영역은 부호화 하지 않음으로써 압축효율을 향상시킨다. 제안한 알고리듬으로 MR영상들을 부호화한 결과, 영역분할 정보를 이용하지 않을 경우보다 평균적으로 약 15%정도의 비트율의 절약을 가져올 수 있었으며, 같은 압축률일 경우에는 복원된 영상이 JPEG에서보다 좋은 화질을 나타내었다.

This work continues a trend of developments aimed at exploiting the physical layer of the open systems interconnection (OSI) model to enhance wireless network security. The goal is to augment activity occurring across other OSI layers and provide improved safeguards against unauthorized access. Relative to intrusion detection and anti-spoofing, this paper provides details for a proof-of-concept investigation involving "air monitor" applications where physical equipment constraints are not overly restrictive. In this case, RF fingerprinting is emerging as a viable security measure for providing device-specific identification (manufacturer, model, and/or serial number). RF fingerprint features can be extracted from various regions of collected bursts, the detection of which has been extensively researched. Given reliable burst detection, the near-term challenge is to find robust fingerprint features to improve device distinguishability. This is addressed here using wavelet domain (WD) RF fingerprinting based on dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-$\mathbb{C}WT$) features extracted from the non-transient preamble response of OFDM-based 802.11a signals. Intra-manufacturer classification performance is evaluated using four like-model Cisco devices with dissimilar serial numbers. WD fingerprinting effectiveness is demonstrated using Fisher-based multiple discriminant analysis (MDA) with maximum likelihood (ML) classification. The effects of varying channel SNR, burst detection error and dissimilar SNRs for MDA/ML training and classification are considered. Relative to time domain (TD) RF fingerprinting, WD fingerprinting with DT-$\mathbb{C}WT$ features emerged as the superior alternative for all scenarios at SNRs below 20 dB while achieving performance gains of up to 8 dB at 80% classification accuracy.

본 논문에서는 가중 퍼지소속함수 기반 신경망(neural network with weighted fuzzy membership functions; NEWFM) 기반의 웨이블릿 변환(wavelet transform)과 힐버트 변환(Hilbert transform)에 의해 추출한 첨점(peak)을 사용하여 뇌파(EEG)로부터 정상 파형과 간질 파형을 분류하는 새로운 방안을 제안하였다. NEWFM의 입력을 추출하는데 다음과 같은 3개의 단계가 수행되었다. 첫 번째 단계에서는 뇌파로부터 잡음을 제거하기 위해서 웨이블릿 변환을 사용하였다. 두 번째 단계에서는 웨이블릿 계수로부터 첨점(peak)을 추출하기 위해서 힐버트 변환을 사용하였다. 또한 크기가 큰 첨점을 추출하기 위해서 첨점의 평균값보다 큰 첨점만을 선택하였다. 세 번째 단계에서는 통계적 방법을 이용하여 첨점으로부터 NEWFM의 입력으로 사용할 16개의 특징을 추출하였다. NEWFM은 이들 16개의 특징을 입력으로 사용하여 99.25%, 99.4%, 99%의 정확도, 특이도, 민감도를 각각 구하였다. 향후 연구에서는 특징선택을 이용하여 16개의 특징으로부터 좋은 특징을 선택하여 정확도를 향상시킬 계획이다.

웨이브렛 변환에 근거하여 디지털영상으로부터 문자를 처리하는 새로운 접근법을 제시한다. 대상은 각필(刻筆)문자 영상이다. 각필문자에는 형성된 결상에 유사성이 존속하며 배경부분과 함께 서로 다른 준위의 다해상도 특성들로 분해된다는 점을 착안하였다. 우선 Daubechies 웨이브렛을 적용하여 영상을 부대역들로 분해한다. 저주파 부대역은 분할처리와 FCM근거 퍼지 군집분리 및 면적기반 영역처리기법을 적용하여 문자특성을 추출한다. 고주파 부대역들에는 이동창을 설정하고, 이동창의 국부 에너지를 추정하여 고주파 특성들을 활성화한다. 이들 특성들은 조합되어 역웨이브렛 과정을 통해 본래 영상 상태로 복원되고 배경부분이 배제된 문자를 추출한다. 실험 결과는 제안된 기법의 효과를 보이고 있다.

The big challenge in current content-based image retrieval systems is to reduce the semantic gap between the low level-features and high-level concepts. In this paper, we have proposed a novel framework for efficient image retrieval to improve the retrieval results significantly as a means to addressing this problem. In our proposed method, we first extracted a strong set of image features by using the dual-tree rotated complex wavelet filters (DT-RCWF) and dual tree-complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) jointly, which obtains features in 12 different directions. Second, we presented a relevance feedback (RF) framework for efficient image retrieval by employing a support vector machine (SVM), which learns the semantic relationship among images using the knowledge, based on the user interaction. Extensive experiments show that there is a significant improvement in retrieval performance with the proposed method using SVMRF compared with the retrieval performance without RF. The proposed method improves retrieval performance from 78.5% to 92.29% on the texture database in terms of retrieval accuracy and from 57.20% to 94.2% on the Corel image database, in terms of precision in a much lower number of iterations.

In this paper, a method for improving the defect classification performance in steel plate surface has been studied, based on DWT(discrete wavelet transform) and SVM(support vector machine). Surface images of the steel plate have low contrast, uneven, and featureless, so that the contrast between defect and defect-free regions is not discriminated. These characteristics make it difficult to extract the feature of the surface defect image. In order to improve the characteristics of these images, a synthetic images based on discrete wavelet transform are modeled. Using the synthetic images, edge-based features are extracted and also geometrical features are computed. SVM was configured in order to classify defect images using extracted features. As results of the experiment, the support vector machine based classifier showed good classification performance of 94.3%. The proposed classifier is expected to contribute to the key element of inspection process in smart factory.

Wavelet transform used for content-based image retrieval has good performance in texture image. Image features for content-based image retrieval are color, texture, and shape. In this paper, we use color feature extracted from HSI color space known as most similar vision system to human vision system and texture feature extracted from wavelet histogram which has multiresolution property. Proposed method is compared with HSI color histogram method and wavelet histogram method. It is shown better performance.

A heart sound algorithm, which separates the heart sound signal into four parts; the first heart sound, the systolic period, the second heart sound, and the diastolic period has been developed. The algorithm uses discrete intensity envelopes of approximations of the wavelet transform analysis method to the phonocard-iogram(PCG)signal. Heart sound a highly nonstation-ary signal, so in the analysis of heart sound, it is important to study the frequency and time information. Further more, Wavelet Transform provides more features and characteristics of the PCG signal that will help physician to obtain qualitative and quantitative measurements of the heart sound.

In this paper, we propose a low bit-rate embedded video coding scheme with 3-D block partition in the wavelet domain. The proposed video coding scheme includes multi-level three dimensional dyadic wavelet decomposition, raster scanning within each subband, partitioning of blocks, and adaptive arithmetic entropy coding. Although the proposed video coding scheme is quite simple, it produces bit-streams with good features, including SNR scalability from the embedded nature. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed video coding scheme is quite competitive to other good wavelet-based video coders in the literature.

The electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement system consists of I/O interface to input the ECG signals from two electrodes, FPGA (Field programmable gate arrays) module to process the signal conditioning, and real time module to control the system. The algorithms based on wavelet transform were developed to remove the noise of the ECG signals and to determine the QRS-waves. Triangular wave tests were conducted to determine the optimal factors of the wavelet filter by analyzing the SNRs (signal to noise ratios) and RMSEs (root mean square errors). The hybrid rule, soft method, and symlets of order 5 were selected as thresholding rule, thresholding method, and mother wavelet, respectively. The developed wavelet filter showed good performance to remove the noise of the triangular waves with 10.98 dB of SNR and 0.140 mV of RMSE. The ECG signals from a total of 6 subjects were measured at different measuring postures such as lying, sitting, and standing. The durations of QRS-waves, the amplitudes of R-waves, the intervals of RR-waves were analyzed by using the finite impulse response (FIR) filter and the developed wavelet filter. The wavelet filter showed good performance to determine the features of QRS-waves, but the FIR filter had some problems to detect the peaks of Q and S waves. The measuring postures affected accuracy and precision of the ECG signals. The noises of the ECG signals were increased due to the movement of the subject during measurement. The results showed that the wavelet filter was a useful tool to remove the noise of the ECG signals and to determine the features of the QRS-waves.
